Dementus and Furiosa from Mad Max
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Summary Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga has the best villain in the franchise with Chris Hemsworth's Dementus. The prequel explores the origins of Furiosa before the events of Mad Max: Fury Road, revealing how the dangerous driver found herself in the employ of the monstrous Immortan Joe.
Dementus Fits Perfectly Into The World Of Mad Max Dementus Has The Right Mix Of Danger & Personality For The Wasteland Dementus is a perfect villain to flesh out the Mad Max franchise with, serving as a strong foil to both Furiosa and Max. Introduced as the leader of a horde of scavengers on the search for a home, Dementus is the charismatic central villain of Furiosa: A Mad Max Saga.
There are small beats in the film, like Dementus' quiet acknowledgment of his dead children or his brief reflection on how the wastelands made him turn into a monster, that speak to a more complex character. This resists any temptation to transform Dementus into a more basic one-note villain. There's an especially effective beat while Dementus has Praetorian Jack killed that hints at Dementus' revulsion and horror at what he has become.
The end of Furiosa sees the titular road warrior finally catch up to Dementus and confront him over the deaths of her mother and Jack. Having more or less broken the villain, Furiosa demands some means of restoring what he's taken from her. However, Dementus speaks from personal experience when he comments on how the world takes and cannot give, and that they both were forced to become monsters to survive the world.
